Microbiological testing uses a swab to check for bacteria and mould. It indicates the growth of harmful microorganisms within ventilation systems. As such, microbiological tests are extremely important across various ventilation systems. This includes food production, hospitals, care homes, schools, universities, and any building with a ventilation system. The data can be used to show your client exactly what is happening within their ductwork and what the best course of action is to tackle any spread of growth.
Samples are easy to take; by using the swab on the inside of the ductwork, our microbiological swab test kits collect surface growth. When sent back to our laboratory, the swab can be properly assessed by allowing the cultures to grow. Our laboratory technician can then identify potential problems.
